Hello fair readers! Just a quick bit of news today. Nintendo released a new trailer detailing more information about the next installment in The Legend of Zelda series, Tri Force Heroes! There’s a tidbit of story explaining who you’re saving and why they’re important. It seems a little vapid, but probably has some world shattering effect; we shall see.

This past weekend, the Mascone West Center in San Francisco was filled with purple from wall to wall for Twitchcon 2015. This was the first convention hosted by the game-streaming giant and it did not disappoint. I could give you an outside perspective of the things I observed but I opted to go for a more personal touch. I will be discussing TwitchCon in the style of a conversation between…
